TV Coverage:
NBC and NBCSN will combine
to air 95 hours of television coverage starting on March 9 with the Opening
Ceremony. Daily coverage will follow of all five Paralympic sports in the PyeongChang program, before the Games’ Closing Ceremony is broadcast on March 18.

TeamUSA.org: Will
stream all events live and I believe you can view replays as well (if not, see
the first app below).

iOS and Android Apps

NBC Sports Live Extra - (From
NBCUniversal).This is
the go-to place for live and full-event replays from the Olympics. NBC is
showing every event live, a first for a U.S. broadcaster during the Winter
Games. However, even though the app is
free to download, you need a password from your cable or satellite TV provider
to watch much of the video.

NBC Olympics Highlights and
Results - (From NBCUniversal)The app
offers video that doesn’t require a pay TV subscription to view, but the
selection is limited. It’s more useful for the nuts and bolts on the games —
results, medal standings and capsules on individual athletes. Every country is
included, though there’s more available for Americans.

If you don’t have access to
live video, you can at least follow what’s happening in Sochi through a live
blog embedded in the app. You can also access photos and news stories

PyeongChang 2018 Results - (From
the organizing committee for the PyeongChang Olympics).Begin by selecting your preferred language,
country and time zone. Select some sports and athletes to follow. The app
offers notifications when new medals are earned by an athlete or in a country
or sport you follow.

Olympic Athletes’ Hub - (From
the International Olympic Committee).This app offers a one-stop destination to
view Facebook, Instagram and Twitter feeds from Olympic athletes. Create your own roster of Olympians to follow
or search one athlete at a time. You can also check out everyone from a
particular country, sport or event. Athletes from past Olympics are here, too.
(I was initially going to recommend the U.S. Olympic Committee’s 2014 Team USA
Road to Sochi app to follow athletes’ social-media posts, but the IOC app
offers more options and isn’t limited to Americans).
